      I am author of one of BVT's most popular textbooks, "College Success: A Concise Practical Guide (See https://www.bvtpublishing.com/book/824#/book/info/824/view/formats for more information) as well as some modules that may be used in other texts. I created extensive ancillaries for my text including a 200 page Instructor Guide and a video library for use in Student Success courses. I have also extensively modified one of BVT's existing sociology textbooks for use in my own classes (also used by other professors at my institution). The modifications that I made are described in a refereed journal article that was published in 2013. Strickland, David L. and Strickland, Carol J. (2013) "My Sociology: The Challenge of Transforming Classroom Culture from a Focus on Grades to a Focus on Learning,"The Journal of Public and Professional Sociology: Vol. 5: Iss. 2, Article 4.
